Campsite is on a rocky peninsula next to the portage. The landing is not the easiest. You can pull up to the peninsula, but rocks block it, the shore is misshapen, and just not a great place to pull up a canoe. Nice view from the kitchen, but it is in full sun. Tent pads are shaded. You will see a lot of traffic going to and from the portage.

Did not like this site at all. It is right next to the portage, the latrine is very close and the wind carried the odor right in to camp. It was an 85 degree day and the fire area has no shade whatsoever. As for tent pads, there is a largish one that could hold two tents. We had to makeshift others. And the campers before us were slobs leaving pistachio shells and cigarettes everywhere.

Other than a latrine that's within a few yards of a tent pad and a proximity to the Gun L. portage, this is a stellar site. Caught some giant gills in the pads off the northern landing.
